State whether the following is true or false.
Enlarging a raster map indefinitely reveals more detail, as a vector map does.

  • A.True only at large scales
  • B.False only at small scales
  • C.True
  • D.False

Answer: D

Correct answer: False

A raster has a fixed cell size, so enlarging it beyond that resolution merely makes the cells visible as blocks - no detail appears that was not recorded. Vector geometry is stored as coordinates and can be drawn at any scale sharply, though that sharpness says nothing about whether the data were accurate enough to warrant it.
